Modern Tendencies in Islamic Philosophy

Journal Title: Eskiyeni - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 28

Abstract

The demise of classical Islamic thought after the XIII. century is a commonly held presupposition. It is generally alleged that studies done from this century until Tanzimat period have the characteristic of as a merely repetition of past. In fact, our limited knowledge concerning this period affirms this attitude. Still, modern tendencies in Islamic philosophy differ from the classical period in terms of subject, problems and method. In this study, new problems of modern Islamic philosophy are aimed to be presented.
